2016 US Presidential Election Facebook Comparison

We use a lot of great tools to create detailed competitive analysis for our clients at SEO Services Expert. For fun, we thought we’d compare Donald Trump’s page to Hillary Clinton’s FaceBook page and share the results below.

Let’s start this post with a mind boggling fact. Worldwide, there are over 1.71 billion monthly active Facebook users (Facebook MAUs), which is a 15 percent increase year over year. (Source: Facebook as of 7/27/16)

With this in mind, it is only natural to assume that the overall public opinion is shaped & shared through Facebook. Lot’s of organizations and personalities use FaceBook to actively create a positive image for themselves. It’s no different for our 2016 presidential candidates.

We researched using Mondovo to see how the virtual world is comparing to the real world. Let’s take a look at the Facebook data to learn what’s going on in the 2016 US Presidential race.
